Extra Prep Period for All!

The human ear. Gross.

I wanted to inform / remind mainstream teachers that I am available to provide 45-minute (approximate) lessons on hearing, hearing loss, the ear, etc. The lesson covers anatomy, a little tiny bit of sound science (physics), hearing loss, hearing damage due to noise, hearing aids/cochlear implants/etc. Time permitting, I can throw some sign language into the mix or give an "unfair spelling test" to simulate the experience of a hard of hearing kid.

Generally, this helps to defuse some of your students' natural curiosity, and seems to make my kids a little more approachable in the long run.

I can make most times work for me, given a little advance notice, so let me know if you'd like to have a guest teacher for a period sometime. :)
